bookshelves: young-adult, library-book, fiction-thriller, fantasy, series, dystopian, 5-stars

There are already over 20,000 reviews on this one, so I wont add another. Suffice it to say that this time, the hype is well-deserved (IMHO). This is without a doubt the best YA book I have ever read. If you're like me and reluctant to read much YA, then I encourage you to give this one a go. The superlatives heaped upon it are, for once, on the money (again, IMHO). Also, be ready to read the next in the series because the ending leaves you hanging. Hate it when that happens, but not enough to down-grade my rating for this one. A very worthy 5 stars.

MelissaB I loved this one too Quinn! I need to get to the next two.


Quinn I ordered both of them from the library after the first chapter or so of this one, so they should be here soon. I'm so glad because of the way this one wasn't resolved with Peeta/Gale - gah! I see the reviews of Catching Fire are as good as the first one so can't wait.
